There's honestly a very simple recipe to combat about 85% of depression. The other 15% does require SSRI / therapy / etc.

- Clean up your sleep. - Clean up your diet. - Exercise, at full intensity, for 8-15 minutes a day. Weight training mixed in as well. - Get sunlight or supplement with Vitamin D.

Oh, and have great friends. That helps.

We might have a pattern here.

Yea, not sure why you are getting downvoted. Could anyone comment why downvotes? All sounds like reasonable advice (except that, of course, numbers like 85/15% is a bit handwavy, but I don't think author meant them to be precise).
It's sad the only sound advise is down voted yet fad diets by journalists get up voted.
